Registration for our 15th Annual West Coast Fly-In is now open. This event will take place June 6 through 8 at Columbia, CA (O22). Information and online Registration has been posted here: http://www.bellanca-championclub.com/WC2014upcoming.html.
Everyone is invited!
Columbia has been the site of our great, famous Fly-Ins for the past fourteen years and this year's will be exceptional. It is the largest gathering of Bellancas and Champions anywhere. If you want to see the finest examples of our airplanes, exchange information with their owners and have a great time doing it, this is your destination.
In addition to the usual seminars, roundtables, airplanes and camaraderie, several vendors donated gifts for "Goody Bags" for every attendee, and some really good prizes for a raffle.
Ozzie Levi's Gold Country Air Tour (now conducted by Jim Kilbourn) of towns and historical sites around Columbia will fly again, with low- and high-altitude options. Participants will receive maps and a guide to spotting local historical sites such as Columbia State Historical Park, Sutter's Mill, Sonora, and Angels Camp from the air. The flight will last approximately one hour. [Air tour print info will be available for those who want to take tour on their own.]
Vic Manuelli has come up with several interesting off-site activities; these are listed in the Itinerary, which can be downloaded from the web page. An airport conflict makes impossible this year, we are contemplating the return of the landing and flour bombing contests for next year (June 12-14, 2015.) These were a lot of fun in the past; your input on this will help.
See our website http://www.bellanca-championclub.com/WC2014upcoming.html for more information, or call Robert Szego 518-731-6800. Please note that no taxiing is allowed between the two rows of airplanes. We want those already parked to stay clean and dust-free; there is also the safety issue of sharp props and people. On arrival, taxi to either end or the middle (by the registration booth), shut down and we will help push it in place.
Josh, Cindy and Nate Heller of Arnold, CA will be catering our dinners again this year; we expect the same superb meals as last year. It is important that you Register in advance, since we have to make a commitment to the caterer. We don't want any hungry attendees.
Advance Registration https://bellanca-championclub.com/WC2014RegOnline.html is now open and meals are discounted until May 28.
Don't miss this one! We are looking forward to seeing you there.
